Type 98 20 mm AA half-track vehicle
The Type 98 20 mm AA half-track vehicle was an experimental Japanese self-propelled anti-aircraft gun. It had a single 20 mm Type 98 AA machine cannon mounted on the back section of a Type 98 Ko-Hi half-tracked prime mover.[1] The Type 98 Ko-Hi half-track was first manufactured in 1938.[1]
The Type 98 half-tracks were considered "high speed" prime movers, capable of 48 km/h (30 mph) when loaded. It was powered by a diesel engine and had a crew of 15.[1] The rear-mounted Type 98 20 mm AA autocannon was the most common light anti-aircraft gun of the Imperial Japanese Army.[2] It had a range of 5,500 m (18,000 ft), altitude of 3,500 m (11,500 ft) and could fire up to 300 rounds per minute.[3] The Type 98 20 mm AA half-track vehicle was not mass produced.
